The Banderas Bay Regatta is a series of fun but competitive races with coastal and offshore cruisers in mind. "Cruisers" are boats that double as houses - live aboard sailors that explore the bays, inlets and shorelines of the beautiful Pacific coast of Mexico, aka the "Mexican Riviera."The Vallarta Yacht Club was the headquarters and center of activities for this yearly event that took place from March 17th-21st, this year. Daily races challenged the skill of salty sailors and crew. The steady afternoon breezes make Banderas Bay the best sailing venue on the Mexican Pacific coast. There is daily music, celebrations and dinner events.
